Installation instructions
1 Ensure that the location and intended use meet the following criteria:
• When replacing a traditional multi-way (cross) switch, refer to the “Two-
Location” sample wiring configurations provided in the appropriate load
control device installation guide.
• Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
• The range and performance of the wireless control system is highly
dependent on the following: (1) distance between devices; (2) layout
of the home; (3) walls separating devices; and (4) electrical equipment
located near devices.
2 Turn o the mains electrical power at the consumer unit. To ensure the wires
do not have power running to them, use an inductive voltage detector.
3 Determine whether the keypad will be installed in a square or round wall
box. If the keypad is to be installed in a round wall box, ensure that the
appropriate trim ring (sold separately) is available before proceeding.
4 Prepare each wire. Wire insulation should be stripped back 7mm from the
wire end.
5 If installing in a round wallbox, pull the wires through the center hole in the
trim ring. The arrows on the trim ring should face forward and up.
6 Connect the keypad to the wall box wires as shown in Figure 1 below. (Refer
to the C4-SAPD240 Dimmer Installation Guide or the C4-SSW240 Switch
Installation Guide for multi-location wiring details.)

7 Fit the wires back into the wall box.

8 Follow the appropriate instructions for attaching the keypad:
To install in a square (UK/China-style) wall box:
a Align the keypad to the wall box as shown in Figure 1 (note the UP
orientation arrow on the keypad), then fasten the keypad to the wall
box using the included M3.5 machine screws (UK-style wall box) or M4.0
machine screws (China-style wall box).
Figure 2: Square wall box installation
To install in an EU-style round wall box with mounting screws on the left
and right:
a Align the keypad and the trim ring to the wall box as shown in Figure2
(note the UP orientation arrow on the trim ring and dimmer).
b Fasten the keypad and trim ring to the wall box using either the included
M3.0 thread cutting screws or the screws that came pre-installed in the
wall box. Note that some pre-installed screws may not have large enough
screw heads to securely hold the keypad.
Figure 3: Round wall box installation—horizontal screw holes
To install in an EU-style round wall box with mounting screws on the top
and bottom:
a Align the trim ring to the wall box as shown in Figure 3 (observe the UP
orientation arrow on the trim ring).
b Fasten the trim ring to the wall box using either the included M3.0 thread
cutting screws or the screws that came pre-installed in the wall box. Note
that some pre-installed screws may not have large enough screw heads to
securely hold the trim ring.
c Attach the keypad to the trim ring with four M2.2 x 6 mm thread-forming
screws included with the trim ring as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 4: Round wall box installation—vertical screw holes
Note: For instructions on installing in a dual EU-style wall box with a
dual trim ring, refer to the Dual Trim Ring Installation Guide.
IMPORTANT! Tighten the screws until the device or trim ring is flush
with the wall surface, but no further. Overtightening can warp the
keypad and cause it to malfunction.
9 Attach the buttons (sold separately) as described in the Keypad Button
Installation Guide.
10 Install the Control4 faceplate (sold separately) by placing the top of the
faceplate (observe the up arrow on inside of faceplate) on the device and
firmly pressing the bottom until the faceplate snaps into place against the
wall.
Note: To remove the faceplate, use a flathead screwdriver. Insert the
screwdriver into the small gap on the bottom between the faceplate
and the device. Twist the screwdriver blade to pop the faceplate o.
11 Turn ON mains electrical power at the consumer unit.
Operation and configuration
On initial power up, all status LEDs on the keypad will illuminate green indicating
that the device has power. Until the keypad has been configured into a Control4
system, it will not control any loads. To set up this keypad for use with a Control4
system, refer to the Composer Pro User Guide (
ctrl4.co/cpro-ug ).
Button tap sequences
The button tap sequences are defined in the table below. Button tap sequences
that require a single button should use the top-most button installed on the
keypad. Button tap sequences requiring two buttons should use the top-most and
bottom-most buttons installed on the keypad.
